Jumped back here from my build thread for a quick question. As the subframe was out for LCA bushings, I removed the rack and pinion to clean it up and replace the hoses. I drained the oil from the tank and the hoses but most of the oil probably remained in the rack. I didn't remove the high pressure lines.
After re-installing, can I just fill the reservoir and turn the wheel back and forth or is bleeding from somewhere involved?
yup, just fill the reservoir, and turn the wheel from lock to lock a few times, keeping an eye on the fluid level. It's best to do it with the wheels in the air.
